BEAST IN THE MIDDLE EAST :Iran elects new president Ebrahim ‘The Butcher’ Raisi who had pregnant women tortured and ordered vile mass executions

Raisi - known by some as The Butcher - seemingly stormed to victory after winning some 50 per cent of the 29million votes cast in the election on Friday.

The 60-year-old's securing of the office means all arms of the Iranian regime are now in the hands of ultra conservative hardliners.

He will take power next month when the reigns are handed over by outgoing - and more moderate - leader Hassan Rouhani.

Iran's president is the second-highest ranking official in the country, second only to the Ayatollah.

And his victory comes after an attempted boycott of the election after Iranian authorities disqualified candidates pushing for regime reforms.

Raisi stood on a counter-corruption platform amid ongoing economic hardship in Iran, but the judge's history is steeped in blood.

Opposition activists claim he will only further push Iran away from the West amid ongoing tensions - spreading bloodshed and terror across the Middle East.

He has allegedly ordered the torture of pregnant women, had prisoners thrown off cliffs, had people flogged with electric cords, and has overseen countless other brutal acts of violence.

As head of Iran's judiciary, the traditionalist cleric is a close ally of the country's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, whose confidence he has gained after holding key positions of power over four decades.

Raisi earned his "Butcher" nickname was allegedly involvement in the mass execution of political prisoners in the 1980s.

It's reported that he was a key member of the so-called "Death Commission" which ordered thousands to be killed in the massacre of 1988.

"Raisi is nothing more than a product of a regime that produces monsters"
Mahmoud Royaee

Some 30,000 men, women and children held in prisons all over Iran were lined up against the wall and shot within just a few months, say those battling to oust the regime.

Iran has never acknowledged the mass executions and Mr Raisi has never addressed the allegations about his role in them.

And the regime currently carries out around 250 executions a year - the most in the world aside from China.

Amnesty International have also said that Raisi should face investigation for "crimes against humanity" and torture - including allegations he saw protesters brutalised during unrest in 2019.

Amnesty chief Agnès Callamard said: "That Ebrahim Raisi has risen to the presidency instead of being investigated for the crimes against humanity of murder, enforced disappearance and torture, is a grim reminder that impunity reigns supreme in Iran."

Iran continues to be a challenge in the Middle East for the West as it is alleged to back terrorist groups around the world and be seeking to develop nuclear weapons.

Farideh Goudarzi was eight months pregnant when she says she was seized by the authorities in Iran over her support of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI), also known as Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK).

However, despite her condition she told The Sun Online she was not spared the horrific and brutal torture regularly doled out in the Islamic Republic at that time.

She said the very first time she came across brutal Raisi was when she was dragged into a courthouse torture chamber at the age of 21 in the summer of 1983.

Raisi was one of the seven men tasked with torturing her after she was taken into custody, she claims.

She told The Sun Online she was dragged into a room covered in blood where she was lashed with electric cables - and little did she know the blood was actually her husband's.

Farideh says Raisi truly deserves his nickname - The Butcher - and says all the torture and execution orders were handed down by him.

She said her husband was tortured for days before then being hanged from a crane aged just 24 - with their son being born in prison having never met his dad.

The mother believes Raisi was singled out for power at such a young age as he was notoriously brutal - with the regime enjoying the stonings and beheadings he ordered.

He said: "Raisi used to beat prisoners with an electric cable. The first time I was beaten on the soles of my feet I tried to count but the pain made that impossible.

"He was also one of their rare judges which signed a religious sentence for someone to be thrown off a cliff. Raisi is nothing more than a product of a regime that produces monsters."

Mahmoud added: "To imagine this heinous creature could be put in the president's seat is unthinkable. The families of all those that have been killed just cannot tolerate that."

He has now called on the international community to call time on Iran's archaic leaders.
